Miami, Florida(Hexa PR Wire–January 21, 2026)–Dr. Momo Vuyisich joins The Michael Peres Podcast to discuss microbiome science, RNA-based testing, and how precision nutrition could shift healthcare from reacting to disease toward identifying dysfunction earlier. Vuyisich explains why biology drew him in, what modern science still does not fully understand about the body and brain, and how historical events like the Black Death can serve as a lens for how people frame illness and “bad luck” today. He discusses the gap between how chronic diseases are commonly described and what is actually known about root causes, using examples such as Alzheimer’s, MS, and pancreatic cancer. He outlines how RNA-based testing and microbiome analysis can surface signals of imbalance before symptoms appear, and how those measurements can be used to guide targeted nutrition choices.
